This year’s Sŵn will take place on Saturday 7th and Sunday 8th November (a little later than usual due to the Rugby World Cup) across a bundle of venues in Cardiff. If you’re new to the festival, all you need to know is that one wristband gets you in to all the venues (subject to capacity), as you walk/run/meander around to discover as much new music as possible.

Sŵn is all about music discovery, so though you may well know a few of the acts on the line up, they’re pretty confident you won’t know them all, and if you know none, then even better. Welcome! This is where the fun starts. All you need to know is that they handpick every band. They’re all be tip top. Just ask any regular Sŵnster. 

Camping: No camping at this event – check out our ‘Find Nearby Hotels’ tab for other options.
